The only BP arms they scored on were Maton & Urquidy. 2 guys that probably won't see the field.

Can we get MItch Williams to throw out the first pitch and accidentally throw it into their dugout for Game 1?

Weird how many players have played for both us and the Phillies over time.

Oswalt
Lidge
Wild Thing
Schilling
The legendary Garett Stubs
Ken Giles
Vince Velaquz
Brett Myers
Hunter Pence
Turk Farrell
Pete Incaviglia
Doug Jones
Jeff Juden
Milt Thompson
Brandon Duckworth
Zeke Astacio maybe?
Michael Bourn
JA Crap Happ

I'm sure there's a ton more.

I'd take each of those again, but 6 innings for JV and Framber!

But for real - I know they have been hot, but they are about to run into a starting pitching buzz saw.

Like to see Dusty get off the plane dressed in this Kenny Powers outfit.

Some fan talk out of Philadelphia:

Quote:
'm not trying to be a poor sport here, but 7 consecutive post season wins? 4 of them against the Yankees? I'm not saying it isn't possible, but...
Quote:
Astros are underratedly inconsistent. Altuve and Yordan couldn't buy a hit this series and those are their best two hitters. Their just isn't super consistent and the hot hitting will steamroll them this series
Quote:
EXACTLY. 106 wins? cool. Haven't lost in the postseason? great.

WE HAVE HARPER. Field leveled.
Quote:
Take 1 of the games in Houston and the Astros are in BIG TROUBLE. This is not a place you want to play as a visitor with your season hanging in the balance. If they come back to Philly 1-1, look out.
Quote:
We definitely need Wheeler and Nola to lead from the front. Astros haven't played here since 2017. Different team, different place, but this stadium and this crowd can absolutely un-nerve even the best. Your only starter that has ever pitched here is Verlander, and that was once. Your bullpen hasn't done well here at all. Stanek got knocked around, Maton got knocked around, Montero got knocked around, and don't get us started on Hector Neris.

The Phillies, like the Astros, haven't lost at home all post-season. One game breaking serve can be a problem. Ask the Braves and Padres all about that.

Philadelphia isn't a hostile environment. It's THE hostile environment. Even announcers are amazed at how hostile (and well educated on players' faults) the crowd is. Banging trash cans is NOTHING. Get ready.
Quote:
Astros dont scare me, they havent faced adversity all year, waltzed their way to 100 wins and waltzed their way through the playoffs. This series will be a repeat of the 2014 WS between the Tigers and Giants. Phils in 5.
Quote:
I can't stop thinking about how ironic it was when Phils captured last playoff spot in Houston. Houston put up a congrats Philadelphia on their scoreboard. Now we get to let them do it again potentially in a Game 6 or 7.
Quote:
The Astros are so ****ed lmfao
Quote:
Useless Yankees couldn't even win a game to help us out and burn out the Astros pitching a little bit.
Quote:
If ya'll could go ahead and beat the cheaters in the World Series, that would be super.
Quote:
I was kind of hoping for the poverty Yankees to pull off an unlikely ALCS win so we could get revenge for 2009, but oh well. I guess we'll just have to continue the tradition of NL East teams beating the Astros in the World Series.
Quote:
I just cannot be mad if we lose, but for the love of god if we can beat the Astros that would mean everything and then some.
Quote:
The Astros are a better team on paper. But so were the Cardinals. And the Braves. And the Padres.

This lineup can beat anyone, and Wheeler and Nola can shut down an offense even as good as the Astros. And we've got destiny on our side.

And my favorite so far:
Quote:
You know, after years of getting boo'd by everyone in both the regular season and deep in the playoffs, I think they might be better prepared for playoffs in Philly better than anyone. We better think of some truly unacceptable **** to scream at them.





Boy are they in for a surprise...

Good pitching traditionally beats good hitting...but then again, it's baseball. I don't care if it takes 4 game or 7 games that each go 18 innings, we've got to get the hardware.

Wtf does this even mean? We're so good that it didn't faze us that 3 of our top 4 hitters slumped and we still swept the mariners and Yankees? And that's a good thing?

Hate to break it to those guys, but we've given up 2.5 runs per game in the playoffs.... against teams that used DH's instead of pitchers!!!

No idea why they would have anything but fear/respect going into this series!

There was a universal DH this year

That's like the 8th person that's said that today.

Yeah, it's in testing. Seems like a halfway point between mobile and desktop versions based on the little I have used it this afternoon.

The mistake you made was the assumption of an intelligent Philly sports fan.

Pretty sure average Yankee fan was assuming Judge would light up the ALCS like Philly fans seem to think Harper will in the WS

Some of y'all missed the winky face and the sarcasm. I was poking fun at myself and the rest of us that obviously don't watch that much baseball outside of the Astros. Sorry, I thought we are all having fun over here all things considered!

Schwarber and Harper are Philadelphia's Stanton and Judge. How did that turn out?
